I was born in the house behind me

On Monday, we returned from 4 days in Twechar, Scotland. I was born in Twechar. We stayed with my cousin Catherine. Most of the time, we were with Catherine and her sisters Bridget and Mary and Bridget's daughter, Ann. My second cousin Francis picked us up at the Glasgow International Airport. Catherine B McC and Elizabeth drove us around everywhere. In Glasgow, we went to the birthday party of Amy, the granddaughter of my cousin Jack. Jack's son, Joseph, who is my second cousin and his family, Karen and Amy visited us in Paris. Joe is the one who sent us the Scottish biscuits.

family and their husbands and wives and partners and of course all their  beautiful children.  In Scotland, the Haughey family is rather big. We had a wonderful time.
At Amy's party, we were in a large room in a sport's club and they had the Celtic vs Rangers game on the large screen, so everyone was happy.
